Air Cargo Traffic to Double by 2043
With a strong air cargo market exceeding pre-pandemic levels, Boeing forecasts continued long-term growth, saying air cargo traffic will increase by an average of four per cent per year through 2043. These projections appear in Boeing’s 2024 World Air Cargo Forecast (WACF), the biennial overview and long-term outlook for the air cargo industry.
- The global air cargo fleet is forecast to rise to 3,900 airplanes by 2043, a two-thirds increase from 2,340 freighters in 2023.
- Driven by demand in high-growth Asian markets, the large widebody freighter fleet will nearly double.
- Nearly half of production and conversion deliveries will replace retiring freighters with more capable and fuel-efficient models.
- East and South Asian markets will see the highest traffic growth per year, driven by expanding economies and consumer demand.
- With the Asia-Pacific fleet expected to nearly triple, carriers in that region will require the most deliveries (980), followed closely by North America (955). These two regions will account for more than two-thirds of global deliveries.
- India’s domestic air cargo market will nearly quadruple as express and e-commerce networks expand.
